Waste glass is hugely present in Morocco, and can be recycled for many geotechnical purposes, including road construction. In contrast, earthworks often produce significant amounts of clay waste that lack the necessary technical criteria for use as barriers. The present work aimed to study the influence of the addition of glass waste on the evolution of the mechanical characteristics of clays stabilized with crushed glass (particles less than 63 μm). The work consists of carrying out CBR, Proctor, and shear tests on natural clay taken as a reference and mixtures (clay-crushed glass) at different percentages. Results showed that the addition of glass to clay decreases the swelling and compaction indices along with modifying the intrinsic characteristics of the clay.
